CLS-M2-5-1 is a self-clinching nut designed for installation in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel sheets, providing high pushout and torque-out resistance. It features a serrated clinching ring to prevent rotation after installation and is compatible with sheets meeting specified hardness limits. The part is installed by applying parallel pressure, causing the sheet material to cold-flow into an undercut around the nut head.
Type S, SS, CLS, and CLSS nuts provide load-bearing threads in thin sheets with high pushout and torque-out resistance.
Type SP, PEM 300® nuts provide strong load-bearing threads in stainless steel sheets as thin as .030”.
Types S and SS are recommended for use in steel or aluminum sheets HRB (Rockwell “B” scale) 80 or less and HB (Hardness Brinell) 150 or less.
